ViziCities: Creating Real-World Cities in 3D using OpenStreetMap and WebGL

ViziCities is an open-source 3D city visualisation platform powered by OpenStreetMap, WebGL and many other cutting-edge Web technologies. Think SimCity meets the real world!

In this talk, Robin Hawkes, ViziCities' co-creator and Lead Developer will highlight the development issues experienced along the way and show you how he overcame them – ranging from how you tackle the realtime processing of thousands of 3D buildings without locking up the browser, to how you visualise the entire world without needing a server or your own geographic data source.
